<div> </div>
<div>it's actually pretty simple. Based on the output from command "df" that you showed us, your root file system is 8 GB and 100% full. If you installed DXspider under /spider (which you most likely did if you followed the installation instructions), then DXspider is inside your root partition. If you had looked where the memory hogs are according to my recommendation with usage of command "du" then you would probably find them under /spider/data. Because there in the subdirectories "log" and "spots" a lot of data accumulates, which can become very large and reach some Gigabytes of hard disk space.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>So first find out where your big data is. You should first find out the cause and understand why you encountered this problem. In the next step you can think about possible solutions like extending your partition or swapping/archiving data.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Good luck</div>

<div>did you also find out the reason why your root partition got filled ?</div>

<div style="font-family: Verdana;font-size: 12.0px;">
<div>Jim, with the command "apt-get clean" you may have cleaned a few kilobytes or a small size of megabytes. This command just purges the cache in /var/cache/apt/archives/</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Obviously your root filesystem (is indicated with the slash '/' ) has reached 100% and is full. This is the most important file system, because main system folders are subordinated on it. If there is no more free memory there, then a running process cannot write its log files, or create temporary files for the process, etc. Then the process terminates and reports the error.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>You have to check your filesystem and see what folder has filled up your space in /</div>
<div>You can do this by this command:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>du -sh /* 2>/dev/null | sort -rh</div>
<div> </div>
<div>this may take some time, depending on the size of your hard disk, as it shows your total disk space usage from view of the top root. As a result you get a sorted output list and see which directories on the root have the highest usage.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Example output:</div>
<div><br/>
9,5G /var<br/>
986M /usr<br/>
429M /lib<br/>
61M /boot<br/>
31M /run<br/>
8,7M /bin<br/>
7,7M /sbin<br/>
6,5M /etc<br/>
1,1M /root<br/>
104K /dev<br/>
56K /home</div>
<div>
<div> </div>
<div>Here you don't see any more information about the partition of the harddisk, eg. if the home directory is also mounted under root or if it has its own partition, but most of the time you will find the memory hogs by this procedure.</div>
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>In the next step you can run the command again, but this time with the folder name that was shown as the largest in the first step. In my example this is /var folder. Now you need to execute the command with the /var folder specified, like this:</div>
<div>
<div> </div>
<div>du -sh /var/* 2>/dev/null | sort -rh</div>
<div>
<div> </div>
<div>This can output something like:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>
<div>8,2G /var/log</div>
<div>1,7G /var/lib<br/>
65M /var/cache<br/>
2,0M /var/backups<br/>
948K /var/spool<br/>
20K /var/tmp<br/>
16K /var/lost+found<br/>
8,0K /var/mail<br/>
4,0K /var/opt<br/>
4,0K /var/local<br/>
0 /var/run<br/>
0 /var/lock</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Now I know that my /var/log fills up 8,2G and I can look into that directory and go on with this procedure to find out the memory hog.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Check your harddisk space, free up some memory and you're done. Good luck!</div>

Your / (root) filesystem is the only one I can see mounted and it is<br/>
only 8GB in size. If you are using a 1TB drive, then you need to expand<br/>
your filesystem(s). You should also have separate partitions for /home,<br/>
/tmp and maybe /var or wherever you keep /spider.<br/>
<br/>
If you have a PC you can boot knoppix on I would suggest that you put<br/>
the drive into that PC and rework the drive with "gparted". The easiest<br/>
thing is to expand the / (root) partition to at least 80GB. Then maybe<br/>
add additional partitions for /home and /tmp and even /swap/<br/>
Instructions are on the net.<br/>
